Dancin' on the floor
Dancin' on the table
Dancin' on the chair
Dancin' everywhere
Dancin' on the floor
Dancin' on the table
Everybody come over here (2x)
[Verse:]
Starting off hands down, new sound
Drinks all round and round
That is all I see through, yeah I see you
Walkin' through the door
Standin' up I follow you
Wanna take my chance and move
It's my soul I want to sooth, in double time
You might think I'm there for you
But I tell you it ain't true
Wanna dance my soul
Get out of my way, yeah
[Chorus:]
Dancin' on the floor
Dancin' on the table
Dancin' on the chair
Dancin' everywhere
Dancin' on the floor
Dancin' on the table
Dancin' on the chair
Everybody come over here
[Verse 2:]
Coming off I take time to drink my
Water filled with lime
You say I am full grown, that I'm not grown
Cause I don't need alcohol
I tell you that's not why I'm here
I don't want to disappear
Into a cloud of booze and beer
Like you guys
Said I am here to dance
Not to find some cute romance
If that's all you want
I'm gon' go back and dance, yeah
[Chorus:]
Dancin' on the floor
Dancin' on the table
Dancin' on the chair
Dancin' everywhere
Dancin' on the floor
Dancin' on the table
Dancin' on the chair
Everybody come over here
The lyrics of Ali Payami's "Dancin'" describe the singer's desire to dance and the joy they feel while doing so. The chorus repeats the phrase "Dancin' on the floor, dancin' on the table, dancin' on the chair, dancin' everywhere," conveying the idea that the singer is so caught up in the moment that they can't help but dance no matter where they are. The verse describes the singer's eagerness to dance as soon as they arrive at a party or gathering. The lines "Wanna take my chance and move, It's my soul I want to sooth, in double time" suggest that the singer finds solace in dancing and wants to experience it as much as possible. The following lines, "You might think I'm there for you, But I tell you it ain't true, Wanna dance my soul, Get out of my way, yeah" indicates that the singer is not interested in socializing or finding a romantic partner, but simply wants to dance.
The second verse addresses the singer's refusal to consume alcohol and the pressure they receive from others to do so. The lines "You say I am full grown, that I'm not grown, Cause I don't need alcohol" show how others judge the singer for not drinking alcohol, but the singer is confident in their decision not to. The lines "I tell you that's not why I'm here, I don't want to disappear, Into a cloud of booze and beer," indicate that the singer wants to remain present and clear-headed so they can fully enjoy dancing. The verse ends with the lines "Said I am here to dance, Not to find some cute romance, If that's all you want, I'm gon' go back and dance, yeah," which reiterate the singer's true motivation for being at the party and underscores their single-minded focus on dancing.
Overall, "Dancin'" is a celebration of the liberating sensation one feels while dancing and the unbridled joy that it can bring. The song seems to encourage the idea of letting go and indulging in the simple pleasures of dancing, without getting bogged down by societal norms, pressures or expectations.
